As my 12 year old daughter Damaris and I participated in the (in)RL conference several weeks ago, I cried buckets watching Sara’s story.
I cried for numerous reasons.
I wished I had known Sara before she journeyed into Heaven. I grieved with those who were so affected by her words and those who hold Sara close in their hearts. And finally, I cried for me. You see, I could relate to Sara’s story because I spend much of my time homebound.
Homebound, that’s a word that I would never have imagined would describe me. Such a strange word, so sad, so foreign, so isolating, so alone.
Will you read the rest with me over at (in)courage?

One thing that has helped ME greatly is Savella for my fibro. I am able to walk upright again and do have some pain, but not as crippling as it was. I felt I should share this as I have shared it with some friends who got diagnosed and didn't know about it. Acceptance, Trust and Gratitude are my best friends!! Hugs, Kathi
